Living Hopers keep collection down and dirty with these lovely "Only God" money buckets.

If, for some strange reason, you happen to venture into Vancouver, Washington — just a stone’s throw from Portland, barring traffic congestion — you might notice more than few cars bearing the bumper sticker “Only God.” Its white-on-black design (opposite of the above) is reminiscent of the “Got Milk?” campaign that launched a thousand copycats. And it’s the brainchild of the leaders behind Vancouver’s Living Hope MegaChurch. Featuring live rock bands, snazzy video technology and row after row of spirit-filled palm pilots waving their arms to the music, Living Hope is one of the Northwest’s faster-growing churches . We knew going in we’d see all that and more.

But then the unexpected happened. Come back in a day or two and we’ll tell you all about it.
